ALLIES is part of the POWER Zone.  The POWER Zone is comprised of six unique and excellent schools across the northwest portion of District 49: Vista Ridge High School, Skyview Middle School, Inspiration View Elementary School, Ridgeview Elementary School, ALLIES, and Odyssey Elementary School.  Although POWER Zone schools are unique, we are guided by shared priorities that are built upon our long-standing values.
What makes the POWER Zone the BEST choice to learn, work, and lead?
We create POWERful People & Pathways through our priorities:

          People First – safety and support for students, staff, and families
          Opportunities – effective instruction and curriculum; pathways for every learner
          Whole Person – growth and achievement in academics, character, and passions
          Engaged Stakeholders – voice and choice for students, staff, and families
          Respectful Environments – collaborative and reflective culture

POWER Zone leaders, teachers, and support staff function to ensure a safe and collaborative culture, effective teaching in every classroom, and a guaranteed and viable curriculum.  Research-based resources are utilized in this work.  The Capturing Kids’ Heart process provides an inspiring relational framework that is used across all six campuses.  Marzano’s High Reliability Schools framework, Marzano’s the New Art & Science of Teaching instructional framework, and Seidlitz’s 7 Steps to a Language-Rich Interactive Classroom provide processes, elements, and strategies that promise a strong focus on teaching and learning and an excellent educational experience for every student.
